First incorporated as a city in 1856, St. Cloud sits in the central region of Minnesota, having developed largely from three smaller areas. Lower Town, Middle Town and Upper Town were mall established settlements housing Europeans back in 1853 but with the large amount of residents the three areas naturally blended into one. Back before then the Europeans began trading with the Native Winnebago, Ojibwe and Ottawa tribes. St. Cloud got its name via John Wilson—from Maine—who had an affinity with Napoleon and named St. Cloud after Saint-Cloud near Paris because it was the location of Napoleon’s favorite palace. Starting life as a weigh station St. Cloud grew rapidly in that short few years and is now one of the largest cities with a metro area containing around 200,000 people.

Services in St. Cloud include web design businesses, restaurants, theaters, grocery stores, hair salons, car sales, and hundreds of other businesses that keep the community going on a daily basis. Web designs is one of the youngest yet most effective businesses in the area because it advertises many other services and businesses that might otherwise rely solely on manual methods of advertising. In the days before the internet people used graphic artists and designers to create flyers, brochures and posters to advertise their company or business. While people still use those platforms, the internet is the first place most people will look for a company in their area if they need a specific service. Let’s suppose you are looking for a dry cleaners and you have no Yellow Pages, the chances are you are browse the internet and look for ‘dry cleaners in St. Cloud’. What will happen then is that your search engine will bring up the list of dry cleaners in your area based on the keywords you used in your search.

Effectiveness of Websites

This method of optimization relies on keywords that appear in your website through articles or blogs, which are then ‘found’ by the search engine and listed in order of relevance. How relevant your website appears will be down to the designers and the effectiveness of their work. If they do their job your local business will achieve more customers.
